From what I understand, this one can bloom continually for months or even years. Mine is just forming the flower bud on the first spike and the second spike is catching up in height. I can't wait. Very nice picks and great bloom.

I don't know about years, but my plant is rather small and has been blooming for almost four months now. This is only the second time it has bloomed, and the first only flowered once and then the spike was damanged in a move. I would be suprised if it bloomed again, but time will tell.

Really nice shots of the progression of the bud to flower.
I've had my oldest one two years and it has never stopped blossoming and has gone from one spike to 4. There should be a new spike soon. These are just plain great plants!
